We’ve produced another great Winter issue of Spotlight WV Magazine! You can check it out online for FREE, and hard copies are available for purchase online.

We designed the layout, front to back. In this issue you’ll find photography from one of our favorite photographers in the area, Steve Brightwell. Yes, we’re a little biased, because we use Steve for so many projects (unrelated to Spotlight WV). Steve is this issue’s Featured photographer, the cover is also from work from Steve.

Haven’t had a chance to update our blog in a few months, been a busy bee. I wanted to take some time to update you on some of our projects. This ended up being a longer post than expected. Enjoy!

ShockaCon 2013: (Charleston) Shot footage for a Spotlight WV promo of ShockaCon the Horror/Sci-Fi Convention. This is the second year we’ve attended and filmed a short promo. The ShockaCon videos were non-profit, just something we liked to do and we’re glad it got exposure through Spotlight WV‘s website and social media pages. We’re looking forward to next year’s event.

Spotlight West Virginia Magazine – Fall 2013. We’re now in our second year of producing the magazine, and we’re delighted to have one of the largest West Virginia audiences on the net to share it. It takes a team of writers, photographers, editors, and designers to make it happen and we’re very thankful to be working on this exciting publication with so many talented people. You can check out the latest issue “Spotlight West Virginia – Fall 2013” online for FREE and it’s also available to purchase in print here via MagCloud.

Rail Road Days: (Hinton, WV) We enjoyed the festivities, home-made goods and great weather for this year’s Hinton Rail Road Days event. We were doing photo and video coverage for the Spotlight West Virginia Network.

Kenova Pumpkin House: (Kenova, Huntington) Another event we had the chance of attending on behalf of Spotlight West Virginia, which was part of the C-K AutumnFest in the area. We shot a different type of promo piece, not something we normally produce, but it was fun to step out of the norm and make a spooky video paying tribute to The Nightmare Before Christmas Disney Movie. And to note, this one was non-profit, just for entertainment purposes only. You can check it out here. If you’re not familiar with the Kenova Pumpkin House, then do yourself a favor and check it out, 3,000 carved pumpkins can’t be wrong! http://ckautumnfest.com

Doritos Crash the Superbowl TV Commercials: We’ve always wanted to give this a go and make some humors videos, especially since that’s where our production company originated from, doing comedy sketches back in the 2002 era. Jole and Mike both use to produce a local comedy show with friends, (please don’t look it up) and several comedy short films. So this would be right up our alley, we generally never had the time to get together was the big issue. But we’re looking to make time to produce a few commercials this month for submission just for kicks. We welcome you to produce your own as well, just visit the Doritos website for all the details, deadline is November 24th, 2013.

Fall 2013 Clients: Over the past few months we’ve had the opportunity to work with some wonderful clients.
